Overview

Anger is a completely normal and, in most cases, a healthy human emotion. However, when it becomes destructive and out of control, it can cause problems at work, in personal relationships, and in the overall quality of your life. It can also make you feel as if you’re at the mercy of an unpredictable and powerful emotion. This workshop is designed to help you understand and manage your anger. The goal is to reduce both your emotional feelings and the physiological arousal that anger causes. You can’t get rid of, avoid, or change the things or people who enrage you, but you can learn to control your reactions.

What is the workshop about?

 

Anger is a universal experience. Kids get angry, teenagers get angry, and so do adults. You don’t have to be a psychologist to know that managing anger productively is something few individuals, organizations, and societies do well. Yet research tells us that those who do manage their anger at work are much more successful than those who don’t. The co-worker who can productively confront his teammate about his negative attitude increases his team’s chance of success as well as minimizes destructive conflicts. The customer service agent who can defuse the angry customer not only keeps his/her customers loyal but makes their own day less troublesome.

Many of us struggle with our anger. According to research, nearly 1 in 10 adults have impulsive anger issues. Coping with anger issues is difficult enough, but acknowledging your anger and need for guidance  is a lot harder. If you have any of the following symptoms, it may be an indicator that you have anger issues:

  • You threaten violence against people or their property when angry.
  • You engage in physical violence or verbal abuse towards others.
  • You display unsafe and irresponsible behavior, like reckless driving.
  • You often get into arguments that escalate to violence.
  • You dwell on negative experiences or persistent pessimistic thoughts for a long time.
  • You regularly face a need to hold in your temper.

If any of these describe you, then you may have anger issues and can get help by attending our anger management workshop!
